EICHMANN: Their bayonet plugs – differing opinions

2 November 2017

The thread starts: I was going to have a new speaker cables terminated with the eichmann bayonet plugs, when the dealer advise me of this situation

"We've found that, while there is a small reliability issue with Bayonet plugs, it's not due to the solder connection. There's a nylon shaft with a copper sheath wrapped around it and in some cases we've seen the copper shaft bend away from the nylon sheath. While we think the Bayonet is the best sounding connector for speaker cables, we do like to inform customers about this issue. But they work just fine, and we do recommend the Bayonet plugs. You just have to be a little more careful with them."
